Procedural Notes
Procedural Notes
• Prolonged exposure of SureSelect Elution Buffer to air can decrease
product performance by altering the pH of the solution. Keep the Elution
Buffer container tightly sealed when not in use.
• To prevent contamination of reagents by nucleases, always wear
powder-free laboratory gloves and use dedicated solutions and pipettors
with nuclease-free aerosol-resistant tips.
• Maintain a clean work area.
• Do not mix stock solutions and reactions containing RNA on a vortex mixer.
Instead, gently tap the tube with your finger to mix the sample.
• Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles of stock and diluted RNA solutions.
• When preparing frozen reagent stock solutions for use:
1 Thaw the aliquot as rapidly as possible without heating above room
temperature.
2 Mix briefly on a vortex mixer, then spin in a centrifuge for 5 to
10 seconds to drive the contents off of walls and lid.
3 Store on ice or in a cold block until use.
• In general, follow Biosafety Level 1 (BL1) safety rules.

Stopping Point
You can safely stop the protocol here. Store the samples at -15°C to -25°C. Do
not stop the protocol at any other point while the sample is RNA.
3 Spin the tube in a microcentrifuge at 14,000 rpm (20,200 relative centrifugal
force) for 25 minutes at 4°C.
4 Carefully pipette off the ethanol without dislodging the RNA pellet.
The RNA pellets are small and almost colorless. To avoid dislodging the
pellets, remove the ethanol in several steps. Remove 90% at each step and
switch to smaller pipette tips for each step.
5 Without disturbing the pellet, wash the pellet with 300 µL of 70% ethanol.
6 Spin the pellet in a centrifuge and carefully pipette out the 70% ethanol.
7 Air dry the pellet for 10 minutes at room temperature.
8 Resuspend the RNA in 13.5 µL of Nuclease-free water.

2 Load the E-Gel as follows:
a Load 20 µL of the ligated, purified DNA into a well in the top row. Do not
use the center well or outermost wells (to avoid edge effects). Do not load
more than 1 µg of DNA.
If the sample volume < 20 µL, add nuclease-free water to the well for a
total volume of 20 µL.
b Load 2 µL 50-bp ladder at 0.1 µg/µL to the center top well. Add 15 µL of
water to fill the well.
c Fill empty wells in the top row with 20 µL of nuclease-free water.
d Fill each of the collection wells in the middle of the gel with 25 µL of
nuclease-free water. Add 20 µL of nuclease-free water to the middle
center well.
3 Run the gel:
• iBase program: Run E-Gel DC
• Approximate run time: 13:45 (13 minutes and 45 seconds)
Monitor the E-Gel in real-time with the E-Gel® Safe Imager.
4 If needed during the run, fill the middle collection wells with nuclease-free

Step 15. Amplify adaptor-ligated library
This step uses PCR to selectively enrich those cDNA fragments that have
adaptor molecules on both ends, and to amplify the amount of cDNA in the
library. The PCR is done with two primers that anneal to the ends of the
adaptors. Ten to fourteen cycles of PCR are used.
CAUTION
This protocol was optimized to minimize PCR-based bias in the library preparation.
While most library preparations yield enough cDNA (100 ng) for at least a single
hybridization, poor quality RNA samples or other factors can affect yield.

If you want to use a different combination of thermal cycler, lid temperature, plates or
strips, and sealing method (strip caps or sealing tape), first test the conditions.
Incubate 27 µL of SureSelect Hybridization Buffer (without DNA) at 65°C for 24 hours
(or longer, if applicable) as a test. Include buffer in each well that you might use,
including those in the center and those on the edges. Check that you do not get
extensive evaporation. Evaporation should not exceed 3 to 4 µL.

Hybridization
Step 1. Hybridize the library
Step 1. Hybridize the library
The hybridization reaction requires 100 ng of cDNA with a maximum volume
of 3.4 µL.
1 If the prepped library concentration is below 30 ng/µL, use a vacuum
concentrator to concentrate the sample at ≤ 45°C.
a Add the entire volume of prepped library to an Eppendorf tube. Poke one
or more holes in the lid with a narrow gauge needle.
You can also break off the cap, cover with parafilm, and poke a hole in
the parafilm.
b Completely lyophilize. Use a vacuum concentrator on low heat (less than
45°C) to dehydrate.
c Reconstitute with nuclease-free water to bring the final concentration to
30 ng/µL (or greater if sample recovery is of concern). Pipette up and
down along the sides of the tube for optimal recovery.
d Mix well on a vortex mixer and spin in a microfuge for 1 minute.
2 Optional. To test recovery after lyophilization, reconstitute the sample to
greater than 30 ng/µL and check the concentration on a Bioanalyzer DNA
1000 chip. See “Step 17. Assess quality and quantity with
2100 Bioanalyzer” on page 38. After quantitation, adjust the sample to 30
ng/µL.
Alternatively, concentrate a 100 ng aliquot at ≤ 45°C down to 3.4 µL. If the
sample dries up completely, resuspend in 3.4 µL of water and mix on a
vortex mixer. If processing multiple samples, adjust to equivalent volumes
before concentrating.

As with the pre-capture PCR amplification, minimize the number of PCR
cycles used to enrich the captured DNA. The use of only half of the captured
DNA for amplification lets you adjust the number of cycles by repeating the
PCR if needed.

NOTE
As an alternative, you can use the High Sensitivity D1K ScreenTape (Agilent p/n 5067-5363)
and High Sensitivity D1K Reagents (Agilent p/n 5067-5364). For more information to do this
step, see the Agilent 2200 TapeStation User Manual.
Use a Bioanalyzer High Sensitivity DNA Assay to assess the quality and size
range. Note that the concentration of each sample loaded on the chip must be
within the linear range of the assay to accurately quantify (5 pg to 500 pg). You
may need to dilute your sample accordingly. Refer to the Agilent High
Sensitivity DNA Kit Guide at http://www.chem.agilent.com/en-US
/Search/Library/_layouts/Agilent/PublicationSummary.aspx?whid=59504.
1 Check that the 2100 Bioanalyzer electrodes have been cleaned as instructed
in the reagent kit guide.
2 Open the Agilent 2100 Expert Software (version B.02.07 or higher required
to run the High Sensitivity Kit), turn on the 2100 Bioanalyzer and check
communication.
3 Prepare the chip, samples and ladder as instructed in the reagent kit guide.
4 Load the prepared chip into the 2100 Bioanalyzer and start the run within
five minutes after preparation.
5 Within the instrument context, choose the appropriate assay from the drop
down list.
6 Start the run. Enter sample names and comments in the Data and Assay
context.
7 Verify the results.
Determine the concentration of the sample by integration under the peak.
You can use the High Sensitivity Kit to quantify the amount of sample to be
used for Illumina sequencing.
The linear range of the High Sensitivity kit is 5 pg to 500 pg. If the reading
far exceeds 500 pg, dilute and run the Bioanalyzer chip again. If the yield is
too low or non-specific peaks are observed in the electropherogram, repeat
the PCR with more or fewer cycles. The goal is to minimize cycles, while you
produce enough library for the quantification needed for application to the
flow cell.

Step 4. Assess the quantity of each index-tagged library by
QPCR
Refer to the protocol that is included with the QPCR NGS Library
Quantification Kit (Illumina GA) for more details to do this step.
1 Use the QPCR NGS Library Quantification Kit (Illumina GA) to determine
the concentration of each index-tagged captured library.
2 Prepare a standard curve using the quantification standard included in the
kit, according to the instructions provided in the user guide.
3 Dilute each index-tagged captured library such that it falls within the range
of the standard curve.
Typically this corresponds to approximately a 1:1000 to 1:10,000 dilution of
the captured DNA.
4 Prepare the QPCR master mix with Illumina adaptor-specific PCR primers
according to instructions provided in the kit.
5 Add an aliquot of the master mix to PCR tubes and add template.
6 On a QPCR system, such as the MX3005P, run the thermal profile outlined
in the QPCR NGS Library Quantification kit user guide. Use the SYBR
Green instrument setting.
7 Use the standard curve to determine the concentration of each unknown
index-tagged library, in nM.
The concentration will be used to accurately pool samples for multiplexed
sequencing.
